Well, I won't send out riders in black, but I will buy every single one of these that I can find. Why the hell didn't we get this in April 2002???

This is easily the best figure Hasbro has come up with for AOTC, as well as the best army builder I've ever seen. Now lets hope we get some ranks released in the future too. I still need a yellow clone.

Seeing this along with the carded Hoth Rebel Soldier makes me scratch my head. I know the Hoth Soldier is a relic from a few years ago - in more ways than one - but wow. Hasbro should treat every army builder this well.

This thing is beautiful! Absolutely perfect. Now my question is, why the hell did it take Hasbro EIGHT damned years to finally figure this out?! It should be like this for all the figures, or at the very least, all the army building figures. Our static poses could (should) be a thing of the past! By the way, when you say "Ultra Clone" Jesse, you don't mean Ultra as in the new deluxe line do you? Just as in it's got ultra many points of articulation, right? Hopefully that's the case, because I definitely don't want to be paying $10 a pop for these, regardless of how nice they are.

I'm really hoping that these are not going to be packed 1x or 2x per case of 12 figures. Hasbro has to know that full cases of these things would disappear in a heartbeat. I also think that they should be offered like the army building 4 packs of RFTs and Stormies at the Fan Club. It'd be so much easier to just order 5 packs that way then to try to hunt down a significant quantity of these at retail.

This figure really looks great, I can't wait to get several if we are able to find them. I agree, I think it would be fairly easy to get a Stormtrooper out of these. Heck, do some more of these "super articulated" jobbies for some of the other characters too while you're at it Hasbro .
